145970 is for the NEA25 AR15 variant listed as restricted.

We aren't talking about a non restricted NEA25.

We are talking about the NEA102 and the hope that will go non restricted.

However this is what nea post on Facebook...

NEA102 - FRT 145970 - The FRT was given along with permission to produce one sample for final inspection based on the contents of our data package request. The inspection is due to be complete shortly... measured in weeks.

Which seems to imply they are looking for a reclassification of their NEA25 as a true ar10 variant which predates the ar15 and therefor does not fall victim to the "named restricted" oic category.

Just a theory....

Anything cool looking and performing like this will blow pricing on the EE for a lot of NR sporting carbines out there. Better sell my vz58s before they go down to what they should truly be going for lol... under $1000...

If these things sell for $1500 plus tax they will fly off the shelves. I could see a few thousands going just in the first few months...

Assuming these things shoot half decently, have relatively good part similarity with current AR-10s, and aren't unobtanium they'll crush resale prices on restricted AR10s and overpriced stuff like XCR-Ms.

I just built an AR10 hoping to EE it sometime down the road without losing my shirt. I feel like I'm going to lose my shirt now though. And I'll definitely be buying a NEA102 if they're NR.
 
the only thing that kills prices on the ee is prohibition

I'm thinking for the Norc M1A resale market it'll really deal a huge blow. But for intermediate NR Calibers, it'll be fine. The key thing going for those (vz58 and company) is that they are still "cheap to shoot" nothing beats a crate of surplus and blast all day for 20c per shot.

I'm building a AR10 now,so far I'm into it for 1100 bucks and still need a barrrl,bolt and LPK,which'll cost me probly 600...if I'm really thrifty...I get the feeling anyone one of use would be lucky to get anything close to actual value for our rifles if this becomes NR.

That said I'd happily take the loss for this to be NR.

And honestly if this is anything like their AR's,it'll be a pretty accurate rifle.
 
For those of you not following NEA on social media they are reallllly teasing that this will be NR, though no official word. Furthermore they are advertising a 9mm carbine based on the AR102 native CAD files that will take uzi mags and price around $1100 cad.

They are teasing for sure .I think they are pretty confident this is going to happen and I sure hope so. Today they released this pic with the caption ...

"Can a rifle call shotgun?? .... only if it's NR. #nea102 "

 
Fact is, hype sells guns. I'm ok with that, even if it kills me a little inside to want an AR10 to hunt with and know it's almost within reach :d
